Hiroshi Aida’s magazine grand debut!!!


Fight against the present! The rebirth of a dynamic youth


I can still remember the scene of that day clearly.

(Toyoshi Arakawa)
(Kasuga Minami)

Going to the stadium to cheer on an acquaintance,


Let’s see…


Was it third base?


PAGE 02:

my eyes were captured by the boy on the opposing team.


PAGE 03:

When he, number 15, pitched, he would get a strike out.

When he batted, a timely hit.


Niceee! Koujirouuu!!


I thought,

This is what it means to shine.

And then, 3 years later.


This is me who became a high schooler—


This is the river I cross going to school.


PAGE 06:

It seems the students at school call it “Trivial river”.


Musashi First High School affiliated with Shouhaku Private Academy University, commonly known as Shoubu

is an application school where students take the examination for the top high school in the prefecture.


“Small trivial river” in front of high school


It’s called the trivial river because you cross it when you failed the exam.


Even so,

It’s a very lively school with clubs and events.


PAGE 07:

“I lost to the exam but I won’t lose to high school life”

To say that is the spirit of Shoubu students—

To guests of our school, please report to the main building’s office. —school president


Well then, from hereon,

The students’ assembly sponsor will start the club activities information session for freshmen.


First, greetings from the student council’s president.

Congratulations to the incoming freshmen.


As our school’s motto “academic, fight and fun”,


I put an emphasis on giving students an enriched high school life.


What becomes that core is the committee and school club activities I will introduce to you.


Speaking of Shoubu, it is famous for its school events and club activities.

In those events and activities,

I hope for there to be a place where everyone shines.


PAGE 09:

First I will lightly explain the student council organisation.

For people who want to get to the club activities part quickly, please wait a little.


Damn, that was long.


There really are a lot of clubs here, huh.


Was there one you want to join?

I’m going to join to badminton club.


PAGE 10:

I came to Shoubu because I wanted to get into the badminton team.

Wow, really?


For me it’s the school uniform.

Though my favourite one was from the public school.


I’ll take a tour to see stuff first, I guess…

What about you, Maruyama?


Don’t call me Maruyama,

call me Sachi. (Maruyama Sachi)


Do you hate your last name?

I think it suits you though

Hm… Isn’t “round mountain” uncool? (t/n: Maruyama translates to round mountain)


Something cooler like this would have been better.
